To the 2019 Illinois State Good Sam Rally

John and I want to welcome you to our Illinois

2019 Rally.

As Directors, we look forward to greeting first timers

and greeting friends we have known through the years.

We “Thank” our state staff and chapter members for

their help and all who have volunteered to make this

rally possible. A RV Rally is a great way to get

acquainted with other RV’s and to meet up with them

down the road.

Please enjoy your weekend.
